...and is able to recognize that this is sung by a man who laid himself down like a bridge over troubled water for so many people that surrounded him, and people he met and who were in need. Elvis needed such a bridge but the bridges were always too short and not wide enough to ease his mind and pain for a longer period of time. So he helped himself, as well and as often as he could, by being that bridge for others.

We often drive a wedge when we are sharing the Gospel. She said timing is everything. He is not prideful and boastful. Jumping the gun and laying on scripture out of season (heavy handed, pressure laced altar call) could snap that person off like a twig. She said if you approach a person with the old "one hit wonder" deal (instant change) you better be willing to share the cost. There must be follow through. If there isn't any functionality for development/companionship DO NOT bring His Name into it. She said if you can't deliver, shut your mouth or you'll be responsible for the outcome of your poor stewardship. ------So many things she taught me. Very logical. Down to earth. REAL. I wish she was still alive. She sang "Bridge" while rocking me as a baby. I remember.

[@AndieZ4U2]

That warmed my heart. My Mother was a DEVOUT follower of Jesus Christ. She taught me to reach people through the back door. And that sometimes you don't preach the Word and even mention Him when a person is REALLY in bad shape. She said He demands you focus on the priority, which is the Soul. The brokenness.

[@AndieZ4U2]

Your Mother did well by singing the song. Elvis provides care to the depths of the human Soul. God With You --- Emmanuel.

[@saralancaster5991]

That’s what I have requested from my family. American trilogy or I will remember you. Anything he sings will do. I hope I see him in heaven.

[@Bull_Rich]

No vocal training, no real instrument training, no auto tune or ear piece, he picked out his musicians & backup singers, he never wrote songs yet arranged them, never had highly paid arrangers for his shows, He was the show, one man, one voice there to make his audience happy and provide a brief escape from their troubles. RIP!

[@davideferretti2010]

​@@itze_ I'm a musician and I study music at the Conservatory of my town. Jacob has nothing to do with Elvis, I was curious and just tonight I've listened to the Jacob Collier studio version even the live version. Collier uses so many modern technologies that help a lot to do a show and he disguises the original song "Bridge over troubled water". There's no the same feeling, strength, emotions and shades of the Elvis version, even the choirs of Elvis are more genuine. As I was listening to the beginning of the studio version I thought that Jacob was trying to imitate Michael Jackson.

Steven Yourke In the book “Careless Love - The Unmaking of Elvis Presley” it has interviews with his sound engineers who talk about how he didn’t have any type of monitors until 1971, and when he finally had them the first time, and he heard himself when he was singing See See Rider he turned around and looked at the sound man like a kid in a candy store. Also if he had monitors in 1969 and 1970 in Vegas, where are they at? There is tons of video footage and thousands of photos from all these shows but yet there isn’t a single video or photo with a monitor anywhere in it. Not even on the side of the stage.

[@sfmc98]

@@syourke3 I think you're a little uninformed here. Generally, whenever you go to a concert, you'll see two types of speakers. You've got the ones that face the audience (the PA) and the ones that face the performers (the monitors). The performers can't hear the ones that face away from them, or if they can, its distant and poor quality. The ones on stage allow them to hear well. Nowadays, many performers use ear pieces instead of stage monitors.

To me, this song is about the only friend we have who will never let us down - Jesus Christ. He is the bridge , the helping hand, someone always standing near when we are down and feel so small. Last Friday evening I was travelling by car. I felt lonely, lost, small. I have problems with my teenage daughter and worry about her a lot. I didn't know what to play in the car and my hand fished out among other cd discs Elvis Inspirational. I listened to it many times but Last Friday was different. I listened to Like a Bridge Over Water and I started crying. I cried and drove and finally understood what the words mean. After listening to it I felt warmth in my heart and said: Thank you ,Jesus. Thank you for this song, for Elvis, for strength it gave me.Yeah, you are the only true friend.

I saw Elvis live 2 times in 1955. Then, he was more about cutting-up and rocking and rolling on the stage for the people than trying hard to demonstrate a great voice. But, as he got older, his voice got much better with deeper resonance. He was an absolutely amazing singer and on-stage performer, NOBODY CLOSE. I do not know any performer that was liked by a broad spectrum of people as Elvis was. NOBODY.

The early Elvis was more R & B oriented but he was always a great balladeer. His voice didn’t change over the years - his material did. The rock n roll used the upper register of his voice. Later on, he sang more gospel and ballads and this used the lower end of his range more. He had an enormous range for a popular music singer, more than two full octaves. He had a truly operatic voice. With his looks and his voice, he could have been a huge opera star if he had gone in that direction. Listen to It’s Now or Never.

[@YoungAtHeart1941]

Carolyn Wright: My wife and I retired (while living in Ohio, USA) in 2001 and purchased a winter home in Florida where we lived 9-10 months every year (until 2017). Charlie Hodge was the man who gave Elvis his scarves, water, etc., and unknown to many people, Charlie was professionally voice trained and also normally sang high harmony with Elvis. Until charlie passed away in 2006, we ALWAYS stopped by "Memories Theatre" in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. to see Charlie because Charlie appeared EVERY night they had an Elvis impersonator. Charlie was a very down to earth man and loved talking about his life with Elvis to you if you desired. One memorable statement Charlie told my wife and I was that Elvis would sometimes sing bass (1 octave above JD - JD normally sang 2 octaves below middle C) just to show JD Sumner that he (Elvis) could also sing bass if he wanted. Charlie also said that sometimes in live performances, Elvis without warning, would sing the high part of harmony, forcing him (Charlie) to sing the low part. Charlie said he knew deep down inside that Elvis purposely did that just so he (Elvis) could show Charlie that he (Elvis) could also sing the high lead if he desired. Thank you.

[@marthadoody]

I, too, am from Ohio, but have been in Florida for far too many years.....another whole story. I got to see Charlie in Cincinnati in 1978 with my mother at an Elvis convention. What a treat! He was a gem and I really enjoyed the conversation. He really was interested in talking about his life with Elvis. It seemed that Charlie was a true friend and Elvis did depend on him for your list above. Charlie surely seemed dedicated to Elvis. I only found out recently that Charlie had passed away. I'm so sorry I never got to see him again. Meeting him is and always will be a cherished memory.

[@neilfletcher1841]

Love this story, he had a vocal range that mesmerizes me from the time he started out to the day he finished!
